My little man!

Here are a couple of pictures, I love his sunglasses that I got him today! He looks like such a stud

Just thought I would write a little update and post a couple photos. Aidan got to go on a little road trip yesterday with daddy while I slept since I had worked the night before. And man did I need the sleep! I am surprised by how little sleep I can survive on lately! It felt good to sleep a solid 6 hours and then get up and do a little shopping.

Aidan did great visiting great grandma, grandpa and Aunt Jennifer. The only sad note is that I missed Aidan's first belly laugh. I guess he was sleeping at grandpa's and he let out two belly laughs in his sleep. But I guess it only half counts since he was asleep...right? Oh course I was a nervous mom having my baby gone all day. But I knew he would do great with Anthony.

On their way home last night they stopped and say me at work. And while they were here I put Aidan on the scale to see how big he has gotten. He is around 15 1/2lbs!!! He is getting so big. The official stats will come on Monday when he has his 4 month appointment. He has done great sleeping the last couple of days. So hopefully he will continue sleeping well so I can get some sleep too.

Blazers game = bad idea!

So I don't know what I was thinking the other night! Anthony was suppose to go to the Blazers game with a coworker but he ended up not being able to go. So we decided Anthony, Aidan and I would go. I was thinking oh this will be fun he will like the lights and noise and eventually fall asleep. I do not know what I was thinking!
When we first got there he was in awe and he just looked around. And as the opening stuff started he got a little startled but not too bad. But as the game started and every time the Blazers scored it was so loud Aidan would jump and either cry our put his lip out.
After awhile I don' t think he knew what to do he would hide in my shoulder or just stare sometimes. Eventually I think he got over stimulated and he left at halftime. So overall Blazer game for 3 month old is a bad idea! i completely forgot just how loud it is in there! Maybe when he is like 1 or something we can try again. Way to go mom scar the child for life.

I love delivering babies!

Last night I was reminded why I love my job so much and why I choose to leave my beautiful baby a couple times a week. It is still hard to leave Aidan even though I know I am leaving him in good hands and that I enjoy my job. So last night while we were sitting at work with not much going on we got a call saying an ambulance as coming in with a lady about to have a baby. Inside of me the excitement started!
When things like this happen I get that amazing adrenaline rush about the excitement about to happen. So we ran around setting up the room for delivery, the whole time I am secretly excited because I love the chance to deliver babies.
So was I ever excited when the patient arrived with delivery imminent. I love putting those gloves on and coaching a woman through the most amazing part of bringing a life into the world. Within 7 minutes of being there I delivered a sweet baby boy. i love the feeling of knowing I helped that woman and family through a very important time in their lives and I was hopefully able to make the experience a little better.Every time something like this happens at work I remember why I became a nurse and why I chose OB.
This also reminds me that one day I want to officially be delivering the babies, I just need that push to go back to school.

Spring is finally here!

Here are a few Easter pics I took today. The real Easter bunny pics will come tomorrow.
Aidan is getting so big i think I am going to stop putting him on the scale lol! Last Monday he weighed 13lbs 3oz and yesterday he weighed 14lbs 3oz. Every time they weigh him he puts on another pound! He is "talking" more and more everyday. He is almost laughing too! He is soo alert and can follow all of us with his eyes and he even likes to watch the occasional show on the sprout channel! Before I know it he will be 1! So I always keep my camera near.
